Here’s Why You Should Use Pavers for Your New Patio

Because there are so many different material options available, it can seem overwhelming to have to pick the right one for your patio. However, the choice is actually much simpler than it seems, when it comes to installing a new patio on your property, you should use pavers! Pavers are durable and can withstand all of the different elements we face in Florida. They also don't require much maintenance to keep them looking their best. What's more, pavers can be installed in numerous designs, so you can pick a design that meets your particular needs. Plus, in the event that any of your pavers break, you can replace just the broken pavers without having to uproot the entire patio. Keep reading to learn more about why pavers are the best material to use when installing a patio on your property.


Pavers are durable and can withstand various elements.

When it comes to choosing a material for your new patio, you'll want to make sure that you pick a durable material that will be able to withstand the various elements it will face throughout the year. That's why pavers are the perfect material to use for constructing patios. Pavers are durable and will be able to stand up to the elements that we face here in Florida throughout the year!


Pavers will require very little maintenance after installation.

One of the biggest benefits that come with using pavers for your patio is that they don't require much maintenance. Once your paver patio has been installed, it will need to be cleaned and sealed about 6 months later. After that, your pavers won't need very much maintenance at all to keep them looking their best. You'll really only need to occasionally wash your patio to keep it looking its best. You should also have your pavers cleaned and sealed once every 2 years to protect your patio and ensure it looks like new!

A water-based sealer is the best option for sealing pavers because it won't trap water or create any mold and algae issues.


Pavers can be installed in a variety of patterns, allowing you to choose a design that's just right for you!

When you use pavers for your new patio, you'll be able to have them installed in whatever pattern you want to create a beautiful design that will make your patio stand out. Some popular paver pattern options to use for patios include:

  • Herringbone
  • Stack bond
  • Running bond
  • Basketweave
  • And many more!

Pavers can be repaired individually so you don't need to uproot your entire patio.

Although pavers are extremely durable, there is a chance that they will eventually break after a while. Luckily, pavers can be repaired individually so you don't need to uproot your entire patio to make repairs! Whether it's just a single paver that needs to be replaced or a few, you can remove just those pavers, making the entire repair process much easier when compared to other material options.
